Terror RiskFebruary 26, 2016There are vultures awaiting for passengers transferring from domestic to international airport. These guys try to convince you that they are genuine but don't be fool by them. Always get prepaid taxi!Upvoted 16 hours ago
Ram RajasekaranJuly 19, 2018Beautiful airport. Lots of walking involved, but I think that is the case with most airports. They turn the AC off at night it seems. Trying to be ecofriendly at the expense of passenger comfort.
Trolleys are kept in the far corner of the vast baggage claim area near Belt 3. God forbid your luggage is coming at Belt 13. You'll walk a kilometre to and fro to collect a trolley. Amazing India!
MidiaAugust 17, 2018A big ,clean airport,the only problem is that u just have45 minutes of free wi fi and if u wanna charge it you MUST have credit card not in cash!!!! Lovely part of that is dogs in air port
Head for the immigration queue immediately once you land. Can be a longish affair. Always on offers for those looking for alcohol deals.
Very clean and well appointed airport. Expect long walks to the arrival hall and lots a traffic around the airport when getting out. Theobroma being in the airport is 😀
Shopper and Foodies paradise! You can get great bargains. Look out for it! :)
Its all new airport. Superb makeover and must say that this is world class airport.
Tawseef KhanAugust 5, 2018You need Indian SIM for free WiFi. Large, modern airport with tons of options for shopping and food.

An airport matching international standards. Very big & good. But as it is an Indian airport, the authoroties are also having typical India orthodox mentality.- Terror RiskFebruary 26, 2016The international airport is huge but lots of security checks from the entrance to the check-in counter, customs, immigrations, etc will probably take almost / hours of your time. It is so annoying!
Terminal 2 is the best and international side is superb
Kyrre GjerstadApril 9, 2017Very nice, clean and uncluttered airport which was easy to navigate. Spent rather long in the e-visa line, but apart from that the experience was very good.
Superb Airport . Beautifully built. Only problem is in arrivals. Lifts don't work properly and you may end up getting stuck sometimes. Lift doesn't go on some floors so causes lots of hassle..
Never knew they have complimentary service for transfer to international airport. Must take this service to avoid traffic and reach faster. Lovely AC coach and smart staff at your help. 😊
Harry MakertiaJune 13, 2017My first time visiting India. Clean and calm airport. It was my first impression at 10 pm.
New terminal is lovely. Huge, quiet and easy to get through on arrival until the last bit - filtered through small channel to show passport stamp! Bit of a scrum.
Jacobo P LJune 2, 2019Well maintained, good enough!! Only problem is the imbecile who came to put carpeting in the corridors of arrivals, as in Delhi airport...trolleys are not running well!!!
It's one of the best airports in India.. New and lavish.. There's something for everyone
Judge HaronDecember 14, 2015Be sure to be early. The immigration queue can easily take you at least 30 min to clear. Nice beautiful new airport but service is like 50 years backward.
Иανιи кυмαяDecember 4, 2012WoW .. The free Wifi connection that they provide on arrival is just awesome..Coool..Its India's busiest airport in terms of passenger check-ins nd you can see why..Mumbaii
David John SimpsonFebruary 24, 2014'Out of India' by gate 78 (departures) has many reasonably priced gifts and homewares. We'll be saving money and time for our next visit!
Tanveer Singh MahendraJanuary 13, 2023VIP parking available after Departure gate no. 7. Easy access to the gates and good location to park if you want to spend some time before check-in.- Unlike most international airports of class, Mumbai's airport does not believe people need small trolleys while walking the kilometres from the plane and Immigration. Amazing India!
Lizz NamukuruSeptember 6, 2013the mac donalda is the best place to lounge if you have a connecting domestic flight afterwhich there is a bus that takes you to the domestic airport for free- Harry MakertiaJune 16, 2017The departure section of this airport is surprisingly very good. Clean and very organized.
Everything is beautiful and grand at T2 except the mosquitoes...they are big, plenty and everywhere. Do not dare to enter without a mosquito repellent cream.
Terminal 1 at Santacruz for domestic flights and Terminal 2 at Sahar for int'l flights. Use the same airside facilities but are physically separated on the cityside, requiring a 15–20-min (airside).
Manoj KumarSeptember 27, 2015Guys , duty free has lots of options , prices are very reasonable as compared to Europe duty free . at least 20% cheaper than ATU Istanbul.
Adhith ShanmugamJuly 29, 2015Great architecture,friendly staff.Border control must be quick enough to handle passengers.Good restaurant space.Overall nice ambience.
Tejash ShahMay 17, 2013Have a fresh fruit juice at Shia Sagar, once you are out of the terminal and before you hop into a car/cab. It will energize you after the long and tiring immigration and bag collection experience.
Recommended to buy alcohol frm the destination u come frm its cheaper and variety is larger.if you travel with fmly u can't use one credit card to pay for all.u need to swipe multiple times! Hw lame- MK ChanJune 3, 2018The road to immigration is quite far, it is always crowded. If u have e-visa, go further away counter, 50-55 counter around.
Good airport BUT the ATMs in the area after customs when you’re entering the country don’t even work so why are they there? They have counters for money exchange that take a cut of course.
If you get WiFi connected then you are one hell of a dude. Bloody such an amazing airport with no proper WiFi connectivity. Also plz do currency exchange of how much you need. The charges are sky high
Akash MaharajDecember 14, 2014The revamp to the airport is amazing. Just make sure you have all the relevant forms filled and ready to ensure a smooth customs experience.
Jeff RoeserMarch 7, 2015A truly stunning terminal. Not much to eat before security. Free wifi available at the information desks
Matrix voice/data card (handheld android) for Dubai is from Du - for 249 AED (30 days). I understand that at DXB airport you can get it for 99 AED! Check before you buy! Jaago Grahak Jaago :-)
Alex GoroshkoMarch 6, 2014Airport seams like museum with different sculptures and designed with a lot of Sacral Geometry element, for example "flower of life"
Nimesh VelleraDecember 29, 2012If you are dropping someone off in your own vehicle at departure, park your vehicle in the parking structure and then move to the gate ten you can take as much time as you want
Passport check, tag chk, stamping etc etc etc is done a total of 7 times before a person can board the flight! Efficiency at its best! A frequent travelers dream!
Daniel RosenbergDecember 8, 2014Free wifi. Register by applying for a mobile phone code, though you have to stay on the login page. So unless you memorise it when it flashes up, you need to start again!
Sanjay DaveAugust 24, 2014It talks about Indian culture and it is well rolled arround each places in airport.
Duty free shopping more attractively priced for Scotch n Malts, as compared to Dubai, Heathrow, JFK, Seattle Tacoma, Gatwick. If ur outta INR just ask customs official to use an ATM just outside.
If you're coming in from an international location, run to immigration as soon as you get out. The lines fill up FAST!
Smoking at outside of terminal: behind Burger King is recommended. ISA members will immediately recognize once get there. [ International Smokers Association]
